My new freestryle build , based on new and old parts scavanged from my last quad. The frame is a Martian with the back cut off. I had the idea when looking at the Flowride frame of Kabab FPV. This mod remove around 10g off the frame. All the electronics are packed in the central stack. Fpv cam is the Eachine 1000TVL with a 1.8mm Monster lens. The mount is a custom 3D print (32° tilt). Dry weight with bi-blade props is 335g.

AirbladeUAV has done it again and this time they've brought long range to the 5" class! Based on the popular Transformer Mini, the new Transformer 5" Ultralight adopts a lot of the same design philosophies with larger props and more payload capacity. It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
